of the commissioners office, pointing
out the Inconvenience which may arise
from electnG three entirely new men.
The suggestion is wise one and what
il more, we think, would answer rs
we'll for Centre county. 1t stands 10
reason that the affairs of our board Of
commissioners, which have been we'll
regulated and successfully handled
during the last six years, will suffer
more or less in the hands of new and
inexperienced men and we repeat editor
Furey's advise 10 retain one of the old
democratic commissioners, as applica-
ble TO this county.
We want money ana we want II
bad. Tins may seem IA blunt, uncom-
promising statement, but IT Is nevcrthc-
less true, and the truth might rs well
be admitted. And To he still more frank,
we want those of our subscribers who
owe as from three 10 five years sub
scIiption and who haye repeatedly re-
ceiyed statements To that effect from
this office, &c settle up promptly. In
order to give them chance to do so
with the least Inconvenience we have
secured the services OF n collector who
may call on them during the next few
months and we hope they will be pre-
pared TO meet our demands. AS said
before we need the money To run the
JOURNAL successfully and that is the
reason for these straightforward re-
marks.
THANKS RETURNED My humble

helm. who visited the U. b. parsonage

| What more certain sign of real |
prosperity than numberiess railroads ?
says the Daily NacS. That is just
what Bellefonte is now getting the ben
eft of, and soon can claim the site of |
the State Capitol, not only because of |
| its central location, but also because ii |
is the radiating point for the great
! highways of travel. Another is added |
to the list, the Lock Haven Democrat |
| being informed that the Wilkesbarre |
and Western railroad company are now
surveying a line for railroad from
Watson;own through Sugar and Nit
tany valleys to Bellefonte, with
branch from Washington Furnace TO
Mill Hall 10 connect with the Beech
Creek road at that place, with view of
carrying coal from the Beech Creek
coal basin TO the eastern market. II Is
said this will be the short est line from
the Beech Creek and Snow Shoe coal
fields TO New y ork

THREE EFFECTS. The thousands
of remarkable cures which have been
accomplished by Hoods Sarsaparilla
are due simply to three effects which
this great medicine has upon those who
take it
FIRST. 1t purilies the blood.
Second. 1t strengthens the system.
THIRD. 1t gives healthy action to
the digestive organs.
With these three effects no disease
can long retain its hold. It is forced
to leaye the system. giving place to
health and strength, through the po-
tent influence of Hoods Sarsaparilla. I
Sold ny all druggists. Try it. {
